The goal of any healthy eating diet or plan is to provide the body with the necessary building blocks. Some people who feel better on the raw food diet have a hard time staying on a raw diet. It may be impossible to avoid eating cooked food through will power alone for significant periods of time. Over the past eleven years, I have been exploring the topic of how to stay off cooked foods. I have come to the conclusion that cooked food is highly addictive. Most people are unaware to what degree they cannot manage their eating habits.
Please answer the following three questions honestly, yes or no:
Have you ever overeaten?
Did you like how you feel after overeating?
Can you promise here and now to never overeat again?
Based on your answers you can conclude weather or not you are able to control your eating diet habits.
The raw food diet has proven to have colossal values for physical health. However, many people cannot stay on raw food. They blame their lack of will power, yet if cooked food was not at all addictive, they would not even need to exercise their will power. Recognizing the addictive potential of cooked food has helped me to create multiple coping techniques that enable anybody to be strong on the raw food diet in this "cooked" world.
